BlackBerry Limited has unveiled a customisable concept solution that OEMs and fleet managers can use for vehicle health and security use cases to'future-proof' their vehicles, accelerating development timelines and reducing the cost of moving projects from research to production and onto roads. Working with BlackBerry's cybersecurity and automotive embedded systems teams, companies across the transportation industry will be able to leverage the solution to build powerful AI and ML software-driven use cases with a view to enhancing the overall safety and security of their vehicles. The new offering marks the first time BlackBerry Cylance's AI and ML technologies have been integrated with BlackBerry QNX solutions, which currently are embedded in more than 150 million cars on the road today. The modular and flexible system will allow automakers and fleet managers to activate just the features they need or use their own data or pre-built AI/ML models to create an aggregate view of the health of their vehicles from a single console or'Vehicle Operations Centre', while also being able to automate software patches, continuously authenticate drivers and proactively address cybersecurity threats using both Endpoint Protection and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) technology. "This solution represents a major milestone in the company's continued efforts to integrate BlackBerry Cylance's innovative prevention-first, predictive security products with our vast range of industry-leading technologies," said Charles Eagan, Chief Technology Officer, BlackBerry.

Blackberry and Jaguar Land Rover have announced that they will work together to develop new autonomous vehicles using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning technologies. The two companies will use Blackberry's QNX operating system and Blackberry Cylance to develop a range of capabilities to bolster vehicle safety, including predictive software maintenance and cyber threat protection, in Jaguar Land Rover's next-generation vehicle architecture. Under the partnership, Blackberry will also help Jaguar Land Rover identify potential security vulnerabilities found in connected and autonomous vehicles. "BlackBerry is a trusted partner of the automotive industry because of our heritage and innovations in secure communications," Blackberry CEO John Chen said. "We are pleased to be Jaguar Land Rover's chosen partner for safety-certified technology, as we advance Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning technologies to transform automotive safety."

Technology experts predict the rate of adoption of artificial intelligence and machine learning will skyrocket in the next two years. These advanced technologies will spark unprecedented business gains, but along the way enterprise leaders will be called to quickly grapple with a smorgasbord of new ethical dilemmas. These include everything from AI algorithmic bias and data privacy issues to public safety concerns from autonomous machines running on AI. Because AI technology and use cases are changing so rapidly, chief information officers and other executives are going to find it difficult to keep ahead of these ethical concerns without a roadmap. To guide both deep thinking and rapid decision-making about emerging AI technologies, organizations should consider developing an internal AI ethics framework.

BlackBerry Cylance is pleased to announce the debut of CylanceGUARD, a comprehensive security solution that delivers continuous threat prevention across the entire enterprise and response automation powered by BlackBerry Cylance's groundbreaking artificial intelligence platform. CylanceGUARD is a 24x7 managed detection and response (MDR) offering that provides actionable intelligence to prevent and respond to threats quickly, minimizing alert fatigue while delivering the context required to streamline investigations led by world-class threat hunting and incident response experts. The solution also provides an advanced orchestration engine with custom filters to reduce false positives and alert fatigue, bolstering an organization's security posture by providing automated remediation rules to reduce the time lost to manual incident response actions. CylanceGUARD provides proactive threat hunting processes beyond simple alert management, freeing up human resources for other security initiatives and instantly maturing a customer's security program. CylanceGUARD increases overall environment visibility and simplifies complex workflows to dramatically reduce dwell time in identifying and remediating attacks and the proliferation of system intrusions.

Skipping past the marketing buzzwords, how do real security professionals actually feel about the maturity and relevancy of artificial intelligence (AI)? The SANS Institute's Security Gets Smart with AI report offers some data-driven insight into these fundamental questions. Blackberry Cylance sponsored this survey and report to determine how technical managers and staff perceive various facets and applications of AI. Survey recipients included both security-focused and non-security professionals. Read the report to understand current industry expectations of AI, the perceived risks of applying AI, the differing perspectives on AI-driven solutions between technology managers and staff, and much more.
